Challenge Time!




Hey team!

We had such a great time with our first challenge, we're going to do it again! I believe we've worked out all the kinks now, so should be smooth sailing this time around. ::fingers crossed::

Are you excited? You should be!

A re-cap of the rules...

You will have a theme to work from. This weeks theme is "Darkness". I'm thinking Halloween and shorter days, but please interpret this however you wish. Be creative!
  1. The treasury must be curated between today and Saturday (Oct.27 - Oct.30). You will have 4 days to create and submit, then there will be 3 days for voting. This challenge will end on Tuesday, Nov.2nd, 23:59. Winner announced on Wednesday, Nov.3rd.
  2. A link to your treasury must be posted here in the comments of this post to enter.
  3. Your treasury must contain two tags: craftyirelandteam and citchallenge2 (note the 2).
  4. You must include 8-10 Crafty Ireland Team members in your treasury.
  5. Your treasury must not include one of your own items.

    That's it!
Your incentive? Should you need one. ;)

- The winner will receive a a little feature post here on the blog AND their Etsy Mini listed in the sidebar for one whole week!

- Voting will be done via poll, which will be available on Saturday. Winner will be announced next Wednesday, Nov. 3rd.


Show us what you've got!

    Spent the morning (ahem afternoon) browsing all the entries. Great job everyone!

    Still having trouble voting though. Probably my old computer but I'm too attached & can't bare to think of (gulp!) throwing it out. Any chance of a direct link to the poll on polldaddy.
